"To Kyiv for Festivities: Delicious History Through the Ages"

A festival of food culture through the ages, from Kyivan Rus to the present day, held with the Museum of Kyiv History in the Park of Partisan Glory, Kyiv, on 4 October 2025.

Atira Ruthenia represented the Ukrainian Middle Ages: in our camp visitors could see the food and everyday life of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania period. We cooked bigos and bread with lard and flax seeds, served kvass and fresh fruit, and shared it all at the camp table. The museum's own report on the festival names "historical fencing from Atira Ruthenia" among its themed locations: Museum of Kyiv History on Instagram.
